It means: “Leftist” Who defends/supports regimes like Russia and China, and their use of Tanks to suppress thier opposition, hence the term.
LOL. Joe-bob over there thinks it means anyone who supports authoritarian & statist leftism but Sue-Ann thinks it means anybody who supports anti-Western states with a socialist history. Bubba and 8627of his friends just use it to mean, practically speaking, “leftists I think I disagree with but don’t really know because this is Lemmy and I never bothered to ask”.
